PKS 2155-304: Long-Term Optical Photometric Monitoring and Variability Analysis

J. L. Weiss, I. Andruchow, E. J. Marchesini +6

Through the detailed study of the optical flux behaviour in blazars over time, it is possible to infer the conditions responsible for their observed emission. PKS 2155-304, a BL La…
